Minipower uninterruptible power supply (UPS) units provide backup power to the computer when mains power is cut off. They keep the computer running for a limited period after the power fails, allowing users to back up their data, close all programs, and properly shut down the system. They also regulate power flow, filter line noise, and provide protection against power surges.
Runtime: Choose a minipower UPS that gives you enough time to do a proper shutdown. You may need a longer runtime if you run several applications or if your computer is slow. A 15-minute runtime is usually sufficient for most computers. Look for one with a variable runtime if you use it on different computers or networks.
Communication port: Choose a minipower UPS that connects to the serial or USB port. If you frequently switch between computers, look for one with both connectors to ensure compatibility without the use of adapters.
